 #Generic backend datasource#
 
-This is a very minimalistic datasource that forwards http requests in a defined format. The idea is that anybody should be able to build an api and retrieve data from any datasource without built-in support in grafana.
+More documentation about datasource plugins can be found in the [Docs](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/master/docs/sources/plugins/datasources.md)
 
-Its also serves as an living example implementation of a datasource.
-
-A guide for installing plugins can be found at [placeholder for links].
-
-Your backend need implement 3 urls
+Your backend need implement 4 urls
  * "/" Should return 200 ok. Used for "Test connection" on the datasource config page.
  * "/search" Used by the find metric options on the query tab in panels
  * "/query" Should return metrics based on input
+ * "/annotations" should return annotations
